The best Steaks I have ever had , service was sincere and hospitable at all times, ambiance was charming and authentic, the drinks and bartender are without equal. As a special treat the legendary Gary Busey ( It was Valentines evening 2004) was performing a live tribute to the late Buddy Holly which was a performance that will never be forgotten ( no cover charge!! ) . Five Stars to la Cave!!!

Truly the best steak and lobster ever to be had. The drinks knock you off your feet, and the romantic live jazz was exquisite, all served up by a genuinely friendly staff. The ambiance does wonders to capture the coolness of the 1960's American steakhouse and jazz clubs. Do not miss this place!!
